Administrative Records

The Administrative Records series, while slight (ca. .5 linear ft.), is important because it is currently the only source of information in the record group that is text-based. The most significant documentation is in several folders of year-end reports prepared by Institute sponsored fellows; a folder of exit interview notes is also informative. The latter, a 1991-1992 project designed to evaluate expectations, events, and services was also geared toward gathering recommendations from fellows. The series also includes a folder of applications from students, ca. 1992-1996. Four additional application folders hold correspondence and accompanying material from undergraduates applying for the Program in the Sciences and Humanities.

The Institute for the Humanities, founded in 1987, was developed in response to a recognized need for renewed dialogue across disciplines. Originally oriented around the humanities and the arts, the center soon evolved into a widely recognized venue for international scholarship. The records are largely comprised of video and sound cassettes documenting a diverse range of events.

There are two series in the Institute for the Humanities record group: Administrative Records and Audio-Visual Material. The records, largely comprised of videotapes and cassette tapes, provide dynamic evidence of the steady growth and refinement of an initiative that greatly enriched teaching and scholarship in the humanities at the University of Michigan.
